In 1984--before cell phones, the web, and reality TV, a young filmmaker set out to document a year in the life of a typical California high school. The result is All American High, an unusually honest and humorous look at 80's teen life. Told through the eyes of a visiting foreign exchange student, the film presents an uncensored view of the senior class as they experience the universal rites of passage in the era of big hair, punks, prom queens and parachute pants. After the original documentary, many of the film’s original subjects appear in new segments, revisiting one of the most memorable chapters in their lives.
